This one-of-a-kind, highly textured, modern mixed media piece of a kimono in blush, warm neutrals is a Master plate for collagraph printmaking by Patricia A. Pearce (American, b. 1948). This piece is heavily textured, as it was originally created for use in making collagraph prints, and uses actual cotton along with acrylic paint, gesso, and ink. The textured surface combined with soft, warm neutral tones and simple geometries of the kimono form gives an organic yet modern aesthetic to this unique piece.

Unsigned, from a collection of the artist's works.
Unframed.
Includes original storage sleeve.
